Hello all, what follows is Volume 2 of two very special mixes I made upon returning from the motherland: Uruguay. Truly, this was the best trip I’ve ever been on. Here I try to capture the atmosphere and sentiment of me and my wife’s experiences through the sounds we listened to while there, as well as with what I was inspired to dig up and look into upon our return.

I have come to realize that for the foreseeable future I simply will not have time to reproduce something akin to what I accomplished with the post for Volume 1. However, I feel that I must post this now with the season being just perfect for these tunes to be heard–as this two-volume mix is best enjoyed when under the warm sun; so be sure to break it out a few times over the course of the summer! If you enjoy any of the artists represented here I strongly encourage you to explore their work and lives further, as many remain relatively unknown outside of that wonderful little country nestled between the massive Brazil and Argentina, settled on the banks of a river as wide as a sea: Uruguay.

O, and don’t forget to revisit Volume 1, as they certainly work best together as a whole.
